British-born Australian Harry Leslie said that he was lucky to have had a special angel looking over him, which also helped him to survive difficult times at the camps.

Leslie was a tailor when he went to war and he spent three years in various detention camps in Taiwan where he said that Japanese soldiers tried to work him to death. He survived on rice and "pickings," such as snails and tree bark juice.

When Leslie was released in 1945, he was a 43.5kg walking skeleton, about half of what he weighed when he was taken prisoner in February 1942 in Singapore.

(Part2)Also, MAEDA Yuji who was a correspondent of the Domei News agency said, I was totally shocked with the news about these crimes occurred within the Nanking city. All other Domei's correspondents who used to diligently cover inside the city in those days have never encountered any incidents of brutality that occurred after restoring the public order. If any unlawful things like that had happened, some of us or any correspondent must have caught that.

@undertakerRach You mean people should write IRRELEVANT comments with little or no relation to this video like you? Perhaps you can tell me how the Americans, Nanking, and the supposedly wrongly accused Japanese are related to the warcrimes of the Japanese in SINGAPORE? I feel really sorry for you if you are thinking that Singapore is part of China.

(Part2)He also wrote that, in some intakes of Nationalist conscripts, 90% died from disease, starvation or violence, before they had even commenced training. In “The Birth of Communist China”, C.P. Fitzgerald describes China under the rule of KMT thus: “the Chinese people groaned under a regime Fascist in every quality except efficiency.”

(Part1)R. J. Rummel states that there is little information regarding the general treatment of Japanese prisoners taken by Chinese Nationalist forces during the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937-45). However, Chinese civilians and conscripts, as well as Japanese civilians, were maltreated by Chinese soldiers. Rummel claims that Chinese peasants "often had no less to fear from their own soldiers than they did from the Japanese."
